Foreclosure Filings

During the past 12 months, from July 2008 to June 2009, there was a total of 73,611 foreclosure filings in Sacramento--Arden-Arcade--Roseville, or approximately 201.67 per day. That compares to the previous 12-month period of July 2007 to June 2008 when there were 59,652 foreclosure filings, or approximately 163.43 per day.

Public record foreclosure filings include the three steps in the foreclosure process beginning with the pre-foreclosure filing or Notice of Default (NOD), which typically occurs after the 90-day delinquency period, the Notice of Foreclosure Sale when the property is scheduled for auction; and the Notification of Sale filed after the property is sold at auction. If the property isn't sold at auction, it goes back to the lender and is considered Real Estate Owned (REO). Because data is collected from public records, it is subject to limitations with regard to geographic coverage and differences in how various municipalities record foreclosure filings.

Foreclosure data for First American CoreLogic is reported based on the actual number of active mortgage loans rather than the total number of households in a given area, which provides more accurate results by removing paid-in-full mortgages from the equation.
